Good size not too big. Cabin staff excellent & cabin well arranged & clean & tidy with hood storage. We had a free upgrade which was great.
Food in the lido & main dining was not always hot & the service seemed a little confused at times. I didn’t think there was any extra space in these areas compared to a smaller Holland America ship I’d been on previously.
The smaller good areas were very good. The bars were good and the live music was excellent.
The itinerary was just what we wanted and the shop ran to time. Getting on & off was generally good
